The Next Web is a great web conference based in Amsterdam and also a blog "that reports on everything that influences the future of the Web, in any way". So that can be a little tough sometimes, as you see in the video co-founder Patrick de Laive just got knocked out... But draw your own opinion by listening to what he has to say about the web business and the Dutch startup scene. One hint, the end might be a little special highlight....http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2130/2493748321_ce917eebce_s.jpg ;-) cause starting up... eeehmm getting up from the ground can sometimes be tough, that's maybe some sort of a forecast for the coming year? Let's hope that the startups will do better than Patrick does....

P.S. Special thanks to Patrick for that humorous approach...
